But, scripting languages are not programming languages, scripting languages are made to run commands, and by default a script should halt if a command fails, at least in the CLI execution context. The problem is, scripting languages mix programming context and scripting context, so a condition written in the script shouldn't be treated as a CLI exit status. Anyway, I don't use fish for scripts just for the lack of exit on command error. That's essential while scripting.
